dioxide and other gases changed wildly whenever the crowd cheered． That got him wondering---Could the gases people breathe out be influenced by emotions？ To find out， he went to the movies．

Williams and his coworkers measured air samples collected over six weeks in two movie

theaters． Overall， 9，500 movie goers watched 16 films． They included a mix of comedy， romance， action and horror films． Among them were The Hunter Games， Catching Fire， Carrie， and Walking with Dinosaurs． The researchers gave scenes from the movies such labels as \， \， and \． Then they looked for hundreds of chemicals in the air that showed up as people were watching particular movie scenes． And certain scenes had distinct chemical \． Scenes that had people laughing or on the edge of their seats were especially distinctive． During screenings of The Hunger Games， levels of carbon dioxide and isoprene got to the highest at two suspenseful moments． Because isoprene is related to muscle movement， the researchers think tense movie moments likely led to its peak． Williams and his colleagues think the increase in carbon dioxide was due to the viewers' increased pulse and breathing rates．

Scientists need more data to make stronger links between human emotions and what's in their breath． But Williams can see potential practical uses． Companies， for instance， could quickly measure the air during tests to see how people feel about new products． He pictures future studies recording other body variables （变数） as well． These might include heart rate and body temperature， for instance． \．\

By chance I came across an article about a doctor called Lin Qiaozhi， a specialist in women's diseases． She lived from 1901 to 1983． It seemed that she had been very busy in her chosen career， travelling abroad to study as well as writing books and articles． One of them caught my eye． It was a small book explaining how to cut the death rate from having and caring for babies． She gave some simple rules to follow for keeping babies clean， healthy and free from sickness． Why did she write that？ Who were the women that Lin Qiaozhi thought needed this advice？ I looked carefully at the text and realized that it was intended for women in the countryside． Perhaps if they had an emergency they could not reach a doctor．

Suddenly it hit me how difficult it was for a woman to get medical training at that time． That was a generation when girls' education was always placed second to boys'． Was she so much cleverer than anyone else？ Further reading made me realize that it was hard work and determination as well as her gentle nature that got her into

medical school． What made her succeed later on was the kindness and consideration she showed to all her patients． There was story after story of how Lin Qiaozhi， tired after a day's work， went late at night to deliver a baby for a poor family who could not pay her． By now I could not wait to find out more about her． I discovered that Lin Qiaozhi had devoted her whole life to her patients and had chosen not to have a family of her

own． Instead she made sure that about 50，000 babies were safely delivered． By this time I was very excited． Why not study at a medical college like Lin Qiaozhi and carry on her good work？ It was still not too late for me to improve my studies， prepare for the university entrance examinations， and…．

When and where did the author read the article about Lin Qiaozhi？（ no more than 5 words） ______

For what purpose did Lin Qiao zhi write a little book about how to look after babies？（ no more than 20 words） ______

What does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph mean？（ no more than 10 words） ______

What does the author think are the most important qualities that a successful doctor should have？（ no more than 5 words） ______

Do you think the author will study at a medical college？ Why or why not？（ no more than 20 words） ______
